Influential directing duo The Coen Brothers have just announced their first television series, and it's with Netflix. Named "The Ballad of Buster Scruggs", it'll be a six-part Western starring Tim Blake Nelson (O Brother, Where Art Thou?) as the titular Buster.

In a press release, the Oscar-winning siblings simply said, "We are streaming motherfuckers!"

"The Coens are visionary directors, masterful storytellers, and colorful linguists. We are thrilled for Netflix to become home to the full range of their talents," added Cindy Holland, Netflix's Vice President of original content.

"The Ballad of Buster Scruggs" is set to premiere on Netflix sometime in 2018.
